I'm just a visitor 'round here but, if things haven't completely gone
whacko, you should be able to use SxS or Com redirection on any component
that exposes a tlb. Here's a post with a few links....

Registration free COM is probably what you're thinking of?

Thanks, this looks like just the ticket.

Phil,
I tried using the approach outlined in the simple-talk link above. I
have built the manifest as described and am getting the following error
msg
"This application has failed to start because the application
configuration is incorrect. reinstalling the application may fix the
problem."
The article says that further information on this error can be found in
the event log but I can't seem to locate any such entry in the event
viewer. Do you know of any other simple example Manifest files.
Here are the contents of mine
< ?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1"
manifestVersion="1.0">
<file name="Simulator.exe">
<comclass description="Simulator Com No registration"
clsid="{D7FC22B3-7335-46CB-AA30-49BC31FD35D7}"
progid="Simulator.GetString"
threadingModel="apartment" />
</file>
</assembly>
Where the Client App is DynoChem.exe, the COM Server exe is
Simulator.exe.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
